Gordon,
If you are only serving Autodesk licenses then I recommend the following
procedure:
Prior to starting the following steps, backup your entire license manager
folder (just in case)
1- Use LMtools to stop the license manager
2- Uninstall the license manager
3- Install the new version in the same location as the old one
4- In LMtools make sure that the service is still configured, if it is not,
configure it
5- Use LMtools to start the license manager
If you are using FLEXlm to service multiple vendor's licenses then the
procedure you will need to follow will depend on your configuration. In
this case you should consult with the person who has implemented your
licensing system.
